Produktinformationen zu „Whatever You Are is Beautiful / Lightning Books (ePub)“

'Terrific... fresh, funny, surprising and - oh yes - heroic' JOHN HIGGS, author of The Future Starts Here

'A standout book of the decade' TIM EWINS, author of We Are Animals

'Imaginative, entertaining and thought-provoking' CHARLES LAMBERT, author of The Children's Home

A mysterious illness, called HEROS, is sweeping America. It changes those afflicted, stage by stage, into super-powered costumed crimefighters.

Charlie was once one of Britain's favourite TV personalities, known for sneering at the weirder members of society in his cutting-edge documentaries. But now, after a battle with cocaine addiction, he wants to go straight and show his caring side. A programme about this bizarre new disease may be a chance to get his career back on track.

As he films and interviews a number of people with HEROS, or Rosies, as they call themselves, Charlie gets close to many of them, perhaps too close, and starts to question his role as a neutral observer. This may well be a career-changing experience, but not in the way he imagined.

Whatever You Are is Beautiful is a dark comedy, which celebrates difference and explores the immense human capacity for intolerance. It is both cautionary and joyful in equal measure.

Autoren-Porträt von Richard Blandford

Mixing dark humour with scenarios both banal and fantastic, Richard Blandford has walked the line between the comic and the horrifying since 2004. He is the author of the Elvis impersonator novel Hound Dog ('Squalid, raucous and wildly entertaining' - Dan Rhodes) and the coming-of-age tale Flying Saucer Rock & Roll ('He has captured everything' - John Higgs), as well as the short story collections The Shuffle and Erotic Nightmares. His art survey London in the Company of Painters was published by Laurence King in 2017 and was listed by Martin Gayford as one of the art books of the year in The Spectator, and a London book of the year in the Evening Standard.
